Thanks D28-HB...much appreciated for the shot...

As the Beech Model 18 was a "real" airplane from my youth, I decided to see what movies it might have been in.

I also discovered an unknown source of aircraft memorabilia - Welcome to IMPDb! - "Beechcraft Model 18"

Some referenced aircraft are directly a part of the movie, and in some the aircraft is just in the background.

This compilation must have taken an enormous amount of time.


Here's one example using the world class movie Beach Blanket Bingo!





They also have some areas will keep you mesmerized - Wings of Russia (page 1) or Wings of Russia (page 2)
